Best Thanksgiving Casseroles
Thanksgiving will be here soon and if you are like me, you are busy planning your Thanksgiving menu. Thanksgiving casseroles are always a great serving option not only do they feed a crowd, but usually you can make them ahead of time and they are delicious! We are sharing our 32 favorite Thanksgiving casserole dishes with you that you want to try this year!
Growing up when my mom said casserole for dinner I would be lying if I didn’t turn up my nose and tell her that I wasn’t hungry, but I have to admit casseroles have come a long way since then, probably because of all the awesome food bloggers and Pinterest that are always elevating things to the next level!
I know you may not believe it, but I am actually a huge fan of Thanksgiving casseroles! They allow me to feed a crowd on Thanksgiving and many of them can be made ahead of time, which is a huge bonus. Sure, Thanksgiving is not complete without turkey, mashed potato, and apple pie, but why not change up your sides this year with some of these new favorites you and your guests are going to love!
What is the secret to a good casserole?
Want your casserole to turn out great? Try these secrets to a good casserole.
- If you want a crunchy top, be sure to use a shallow baking dish. They cook quicker which allows the browning and crisping that you love! Any dish works, but not that ceramic is slower to heat, so it may take a few more minutes to cook.
- You don’t have to use a standard 9×13 baking dish. I often use other baking dishes that I have on hand. If I want to impress the crowd I may use a baking dish with a little flair.
- If your pasta calls for pasta, undercook it by 2-3 minutes.
- Be sure to drain your meat prior to adding it to your casserole dish. I love this meat drainer.
- Don’t skip or skimp on the topping. We all love the crispy topping on the top of the casserole so be sure to add it!
- Sometimes making your Thanksgiving casserole ahead of time is the best option because it gives your dish time for the flavors to meld together nicely.
